Getting Started <ul><li>Let's look at the basics. If you want to start a recording studio, there are only a few major things you need to know. We will cover all of it in this short presentation. </li></ul>

3.
Why Start This Business? <ul><ul><li>First, you should have an idea of why you want to start this business. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Why do you want to own a recording studio? </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>What makes that appealing to you? </li></ul></ul>

4.
Reasons <ul><ul><li>There are a lot of different reasons. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Some people want the money, some want the &quot;rock star&quot; job. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>And a lot of people just love music, love recording, and love working with bands. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Maybe it's a combination of those things. </li></ul></ul>

5.
Write Down Your Reason <ul><ul><li>Whatever your reason for starting a recording studio, you need to write that reason down . </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Put it on a sticky note and stick it to your computer or your fridge. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>This reason will be your &quot;guiding purpose&quot; during the entire process. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>When you get frustrated about something in your business, you can look at that reason - and remember why you are doing it. </li></ul></ul>

7.
Look at Your Equipment <ul><ul><li>If you don't have any equipment at all, you actually have an advantage here. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>You can start with a clean slate. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Maybe you have a make-shift setup that you pieced together over the years. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>That's ok, too. </li></ul></ul>

8.
What Can Your Studio Really Offer? <ul><ul><li>Take a good look at the total package your studio has to offer. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>What can you do for band? </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Basic demos, only 4-track mixes, a full blown 12 song album? </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Whatever it is, be honest with yourself. </li></ul></ul>

9.
Bands Have Different Needs <ul><ul><li>Bands have different needs, and if you have a low-level studio that can only cut rough demos... you can still find clients! </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>It's not difficult. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Just understand exactly what you have to offer in the market. </li></ul></ul>

10.
Now that you have a purpose to guide you, and you know what you and your studio are capable of, it's time to think about marketing.

11.
Who Are Your Clients? <ul><ul><li>This is really all about reaching potential clients. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Who are your potential clients? </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Think about it. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>What kind of bands or artists will be looking for a studio like yours? </li></ul></ul>

12.
Where Are Your Clients? <ul><ul><li>Once you know WHO your clients are, you have to figure out WHERE to find them. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>If you need high school bands that need a quick demo, then you need to reach high school bands. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>You can talk to kids in your neighborhood, and ask if they know any bands. </li></ul></ul><ul><ul><li>Or you can sponsor a local talent show - this technique has worked well for me in the past. </li></ul></ul>

13.
Marketing At A Glance <ul><li>Just find your potential clients, aim a laser beam right at them, and go for it. </li></ul><ul><li> </li></ul><ul><li>Let them know about your studio. </li></ul>
